ATA/716/1998•Penalty for straw-man operation and six-month license suspension
ATA/716/1998Cour de justice / Chambre administrative10 nov. 1998Modified
Extrait par Omnilex
The court confirmed the principle of a sanction for using a straw person in the restaurant trade and upheld a six-month suspension of the operating license. However, it reduced the fine from CHF 3,000 to CHF 2,000, taking into account the operator’s illness and AI pension when assessing personal and financial circumstances.
LRDBH. 21 al. 1; operating a restaurant through a straw person justifies a sanction in principle, including suspension of the patent/license. In assessing the amount of the fine, the authority must take account of the offender’s personal and financial circumstances; illness and dependence on an AI pension may warrant reduction of the monetary penalty. Proportionality governs both the choice and the quantum of the sanction (consid. 1).
